Yoh, things haven't been all rosy for the upcoming Amapiano vocalist Thatohatsi as she previously faced a lot of cyberbullying after the popular podcasters from Piano Pulse bodyshamed her, causing her to remove all her pictures from her Instagram account.
On Sunday, 18 January 2026, the Thandaza hitmaker decided to express her gratitude to everyone who stood by and supported her, just like how Lady Du did on social media. She shared the message on her Instagram stories, and it reads:
"I would like to thank each and every one who has been so supportive of me. I read your messages, comments and videos that were made to uplift me, ngyabonga ngok’khulu ukuy’thoba (thank you very much). Without God and you guys, I don’t think I would’ve gained so much strength to come back and be myself again. May the good Lord bless each and every one of you.
"Uthando eni ngiphe lona felt like a huge hug filled with love and care. This message is out of love from me to my fellow people, friends and family in South Africa and abroad. Lets continue from where we left off and forgive."

Court issues arrest for Inno Morolong
Having opened up about being attacked by trolls, Tebogo recently tasted some victory after taking one of her enemies to court. After months, if not years, of online bullying and orchestrating a smear campaign against Tebogo, the Randburg Magistrate's Court issued a warrant of arrest to Inno Morolong for reportedly violating a protection order.
Briefly News previously reported that Inno continued to troll and ridicule Tebogo, and left the courts no choice but to take action. This was after South African media personalities Basetsana and Romeo Kumalo finally got justice and had Jackie Phamotse charged for her defaming statements about them.
